I agree completely. It seems to me that people are customizing their ROMs just to have those extra shortcuts and weather on the home tab. Is it really worth all the trouble? I don't check the weather every day and I have it on my Windows 7 toolbar AND on my Logitech G15 LCD. And then is it really a great advantage to have shortcuts on the home tab rather than just swiping twice?
I don't knock anyone that has customized their ROMs. But something hints at not taking your phone seriously when you flash it. It's a $300 purchase for most. If you want to risk bricking $300, that's fine, but it's not really a smart investment. I feel, if I pay that much for a phone, it better last 2+ years. But I may be alone in that feeling.
